Welcome to the Gardencup life
How it Works
Gardencup is America's original craft salad and ready-to-eat produce subscription. Gardencups are natural, fresh produce-packed salads and grain bowls that come right to your door in a cold-insulated box, ready to eat right then and there (microwave, dishes, even tables not required!). With dressings and toppings included right in the cup, all you have to do is take, shake, eat, and repeat (just apply a little elbow grease for the shaking part!).
Made Fresh, every gardencup is hand-made to order the same day it ships out to you. We source your produce as close to harvest as possible and receive almost all of it fresh from our suppliers the very same day it goes into your gardencups. That way, your salads are crisp and fresh for about a week after they grace your doorstep. Most gardencups are best within 5-6 days after arrival.
Shipping - Boxed up nice and cool in our fully recyclable and reusable insulated box, your pack is refrigerated by eco-friendly cold packs (drain-safe and reusable). Our cooler box maintains fresh temperature (35-42 degrees) for up to 60 hours in mid-summer and even longer in the colder months. Even if they arrive early though, it's a good idea to get those gardencups in the fridge right away to ensure max shelf-life. To avoid wilting, keep them in the front of the fridge so they don't accidentally freeze in the back.
#cupcycle - Hand-wash those cups and put them to work organizing the house! While you can reuse a gardencup for almost any at-home or on-the-go storage and organizination, they were born for the kitchen. Have your best looking pantry, fridge, and freezer by moving all your loose staples into a uniform storage fleet of repurposed gardencups.
The screw-top cap with foam liner helps create an airtight seal, When washing the caps, be sure to dry this foam liner separately as water can get underneath it. The cups are not microwave- or dishwasher-safe, though they usually survive low-heat cycles on the top rack.
Another goal with our cups and packaging is SUSTAINABILITY. We want to make clean eating more practical and on-demand than ever, while minimizing single-use plastics. Needless to say, our cups are over-engineered! Far more durable and leakproof than a typical plastic cup or clamshell to-go container, gardencups come in reusable food storage containers that can be resealed and repurposed endlessly. So kiss that old tupperware collection goodbye... our hope is that your cupcycled gardencups give you the cleanest looking pantry or fridge you've ever had! They store and maintain freshness for all types of other foods in their afterlife: fresh/frozen produce, your own prepped meals (soups, salads, grain-bowls), dry foods (seeds, nuts, grains, flour, snacks) and liquids (drinks, smoothies, sauces, salsas).
If you find yourself on your 10th order and you run out of second-hand uses around the house for your cups, just ping us for a free return shipping label. We'll sanitize them and get them back into circulation. Please send at least 12 cups back at a time in your original Gardencup box. Feel free to include the thermal liner as well, but NOT the ice packs; those you can refreeze and reuse or safely drain down the sink.
ATTN: DALLASITES! If you live in or around the DFW Metroplex, feel free to drop off your entire stockpile of cups, ice packs, and thermal liners to our kitchen in Garland.
